Lavender Hill looks unflinchingly at the natural world and the darker side of female experience. Here the rural landscape is touched with subtle threat, both beautiful and disturbing. Deftly and lyrically written it moves between kingfishers and roadkill, snares and grief, asking us to ‘contemplate our wastes, our brevity’.
